That was a lot of fun because i didnt have to do something cheesy likethe mod suggested.I also made the badguy a 12th level Warlock instead of a 10th sorcerer.I am not sure how I would play out the last scene I would need to re-tool it entirely I beleive but for advice? The key in how i handled it was to run it with a time threat... they only have seconds to make the choice! So they had the adrenaline pumping.I would probably check out Heroes of Battle and maybe Red Hand of Doom and use the Victory point ideas from those to modify the ending.</blockquote>
